We are in an age in which the city of classic Greece they are still to be born, in which the iron still is disowned and the bronze is the great technological innovation. We are in the age of the heroes of which Omero in the Iliad and the Odissea speaks to us, in order to mean to us, when  the Miceneo people, of the leggendario Agamennone, furrow the seas in tries of new landings place trades them.
It is just in this age that  Pantalic in Sicily catches up its maximum power.
